XAVIER RUDD To Headline Splashy Fen

The long Easter weekend in 2016 will be one to remember, as the Splashy Fen Trout Farm in Underberg is transformed into a magical musical festival for one and all. Over 80 musicians will perform for fans across 5 unique stage areas throughout the iconic 4-day festival.

Today marks a momentous occasion as Splashy Fen announces, with great pride and excitement, that internationally acclaimed singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist XAVIER RUDD will be headlining at the festival.

“We are extremely excited to have worked a deal to bring an international artist to Splashy Fen in 2016. Music is a global language, and Splashy has not had many international performers over the years,” says business Director of Impi Concept Events, Stu Berry. “The announcement of Xavier Rudd and his band as one of our headliners is a massive occasion for Splashy Fen and all those who have supported the festival over the years.”

The Splashy Fen new look website launched earlier this week, and along with its social media channels, promises to keep fans informed and up-to-date with new act announcements, ticket sales information and general festival plans. Early Bird tickets go on sale on the 14th of December, and start at only R590 to the first 1000 tickets.

“We are thrilled to announce Xavier Rudd to the lineup of musicians to Splashy Fen 2016, but will continue to remain true to Splashy’s core values with regards to supporting local South African acts, which will make up over 90% of our lineup,” reassured Berry. Other festival acts include South African favourites Mango Groove, Goodluck, Dan Patlansky, Grassy Spark, The Kickstans and Chico Muyo… plus many more!
